You should be able to add it back through the App Center at this point @accessparksSteve 

 

Could you give it a go and let me know how it goes?

Thanks for the swift response @accessparksSteve 

 

If you reconnected it and rebooted your machine and still getting the same error, would it be OK if I sent you an email to have a further look internally?
